To apply for a driver's license, you need to undergo a physical examination at a county-level hospital or a military hospital at or above the regimental level. For the initial application of a motor vehicle driver's license, you should fill out the application form and submit the following documents: 1. Proof of identity of the applicant; 2. A medical certificate issued by a county-level or military hospital at or above the regimental level regarding the physical condition. For those applying for a special small automatic passenger vehicle for the disabled, a medical certificate issued by a specialized medical institution designated by the provincial health authority is required. The C1 driver's license physical examination includes tests for height, vision, color discrimination, hearing, upper limbs, lower limbs, torso, and neck.

When I was learning to drive, I also had this confusion. I directly checked the local traffic management website, found the list of designated hospitals, and finally chose a community hospital for the physical examination. The whole process was simple and quick, mainly including vision test, hearing check, and height and weight measurement. Remember to bring your ID card and recent white-background photos. It is recommended to make an appointment via APP or phone before going to avoid wasting too much time in queues. I have also heard that some places offer physical examinations at driving school cooperation points, but personally, I think regular hospitals are more reliable, as it concerns driving safety.

When I was younger, I often ran errands for my family to handle driver's license matters. For medical exams, we usually went to major hospitals certified by the transportation department, such as the People's Hospital in the city center, which has comprehensive facilities and professional staff. The medical examination typically includes around 20 items, with a focus on vision and reaction ability tests to ensure you can drive safely. It's important to remember to bring the necessary documents and make an appointment one day in advance to avoid peak crowds. Nowadays, many cities also offer online appointment services, which are quite convenient. After completing the examination, the report is automatically uploaded to the system, making the process worry-free and efficient.

Having been in the automotive industry for a long time, I deeply understand the importance of physical examinations for driving safety. Typically, you need to go to medical institutions officially partnered with the authorities, such as county-level or above hospitals or designated medical centers. The tests include vision, color blindness, and basic physical condition. If you fail, you won't be able to obtain your license. It's advisable to choose reputable places and avoid opting for cheap clinics. By the way, it's good to check the fee standards and waiting times in advance. Overall, the entire process is designed to ensure everyone drives with greater peace of mind.
